Tools and Hardware Reviews of Chamberlain WD822KD Whisper Drive 1/2-HP Belt Drive Garage Door Opener
Customer Review: Chamberlain Whisper Drive 1/2 HP Garage Door Opener
Summary: 5 Stars
New install in 5 hours over 2 days, fairly straightforward if you read the install manual ahead of time and purchase the optional items. For my install in 10' ceiling with 7' door, had to get 2 pieces of 12-gauge angle iron (perforated), four 5/16" bolts, lockwashers, nuts. Also needed to reinforce door; however, simple enough with 18" piece of angle iron as above.
Once I started the actual install it went by the book, except that the provided wires for the reverse eye and sensor weren't long enough to go from sensor, up wall, meet in middle, and run along the ceiling to GD Opener. Had to run at more direct angle. Also not sure if those staples are going to hold in drywall over the long run.
Point where control wires enter GDO, small orange tabs must be pushed to insert wire and then I had to pull the orange tab back out with needle nose pliers to keep the wires secured.
The instructions skip around, for example, you need to reinforce the door before you get to the step of installling the attachment device to connect the curved arm to the lower arm. However, the steps are very well described and point you to the right section for your application.
I offer that it's best that Chamberlain doesn't provide a standard hanging bracket because no two applications are the same. The cheap angle iron that came with my unit (probably 18 or 20 gauge) was only 20" and I wouldn't expect that to secure the GDO as well as the angle iron I bought for $2/foot.
The best part of the job was that I got to buy a new air tool (cut-off) and make a sound argument for a new workbench with rotating bench vise. My wife liked the new door so much she said I could quit my current job and install GDO full-time ;)

Thanks to Chamberlain's exclusive Motor Vibration Isolation System (MVIS)--which eliminates powerhead vibration for reduced noise--the WD822KD provides the ultimate in quiet performance. No more grating, squeaking, grinding, or jarring mechanical noises every time your garage door is opened or closed.
Compatible with HomeLink, an in-vehicle remote-control system, and winner of the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, the WD822KD is built to last. Its 1/2-horsepower motor offers steady operation and easy lifting year after year, while the enclosed gear case provides lubrication and protection for long life and smooth movement. Additionally, rugged steel construction guards against damaging wear and tear and the effects of temperature changes.
Fast, Easy Installation in Just 60 Seconds
Quick and easy to install, this system arrives with three railing sections that assemble into one long piece. Clear, easy-to-read instructions guide you through the process step by step--in just one minute you'll have a completely assembled unit.
For added convenience, the WD822KD has a light that delivers 200 watts and has an adjustable time delay so you can enjoy illumination when you need it. It also comes with two three-button remote controls and a keyless entry pad for those times when your remote is not easily accessible.
Advanced Safety and Security Features Protect Against Accidents and Theft
The WD822KD is equipped with safety features that protect users from accidental closings, as well as from break-ins and theft. The included protector system features safety sensors with Rapid-Snap brackets that project an invisible light beam across the door opening and automatically reverse the door if anything interrupts the beam while the door is descending.
For added peace of mind, sensing technology will stop the door from closing if contact is made with a person or object and opener lights will turn on automatically if the infrared beam is broken.
To guard against unauthorized entry or use of your code, Security+ anti-burglary technology sends a new code every time you use your remote control. An added bonus, PosiLock theft protection ensures that once the door is closed, it stays locked.
The WD822KD motor is backed by a lifetime warranty; the belt is backed by a 10-year warranty.
